So what the hell am I supposed to do?

I just recently moved into an apartment. Last month I paid partial rent so august is the first time I've had to pay the full amount of 1150.

When I moved in they told me I couldn't write checks because back in 2009 I had an over drawn bank account that I never cleared up. No hot checks outstanding just an over drawn account.

She said my only option was a money order since they don't take cash.

I went to get a money order from my bank and was told the most I can get on a money order is 1000 so I can either get multiple money orders or get a cashiers check. I opted for the cashiers check.

I have them the rent and thought that was the end of that but this morning I got a call from the lady and she said a cashiers check isn't acceptable since they won't take checks for my rent. I told her the only other option I have is to give her 2 money orders and she told me I couldn't do that either.

What the duck? How am I supposed to pay then?

Edit: I asked when I first moved in if I could give them cash and she said no they don't take cash for rent payments

That seems odd to me. We rent and however our rent is lower my husband has gone to the wrong place and had to get 2 money orders and its never been a problem. I'd ask her where you can get a money order for the amount of rent that she would accept.
